Produktbeschreibung
Everyone wants to be Internet famous, an influencer, a celebrity. But the means by which most people seek it these days are toxic. The Internet has afforded society many, many perks. The ability to reach out to someone across the globe in an instant is miraculous in some regards. Having access to a wealth of information, entertainment, sporting events, and the news is a way of life for millions of people. But there is a down side: social media. Social media sites and apps like TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch provide entertainment. That's how they're touted. But behind the scenes, when you take a deep dive into how and why they're utilized, you'll find the dumbing down of generations of people who crave the perceived fame and fortune without realizing what it is they're inviting into their lives. The Eradication of Humanity by Social Media examines the toxic culture of social media. It exposes the harsh realities of life for those who portray themselves as something they're not for likes, reposts, comments, brand partnerships, and the hard-earned money of those who can't stop scrolling and hope to, one day, be like them. Discover the hidden side of social media. See how it can destroy lives, invite problems, change the way we feel about ourselves, our lives, those around us, and so much more. If you've ever wondered if social media was dangerous or fake, this book provides those answers with detailed facts, examples, stories, and shows you how they link to many of the problems we see in the world today.
Autorenporträt
Lena Ma is a self-published author who has struggled with her eating disorder for over ten years. She recounts her worst moments in her memoir, "Shamefully Vanished: A Memoir of a Girl Out of Control", of times when she drowned in shame and almost gave up on her life. Eating disorders are often misunderstood, often mistaken as shallow desires as opposed to cries for help. Only those who have been immersed in the strangling grips of it can truly cognize the nightmares of this disease.
